498 How Much Longer Do I Have Left?

“The strength of the Scorpion race is extremely terrifying in a battle between transcendent armies. It’s only because they encountered the army of the Kingdom of Dawn that they ended up in such a situation. If it were the armies of other countries facing these enemies, they might be able to seriously wound their enemies, but they themselves would be cut in half and die. Its destructive power was absolutely terrifying. Without the Country Lord’s assistance, even if we could defeat the Scorpion Army, we would still end up in a no-win situation.”

“The Scorpion Army can’t hold on for much longer. With the Spearmen in front of them and the Purgatory Divine Crossbows and Archers at the back, as well as the Country Lord’s assistance, they can only be annihilated.”

Many people could see that the Scorpion race’s defeat was certain. While they were shocked, they also made their predictions.

In a short quarter of an hour, the Scorpion Warriors, which were originally not many, were now less than five thousand.

From the God of Demon Altar behind them, black smoke flew out and fell on the Scorpion Warriors, quickly recovering their physical strength and injuries. However, compared to the Human Army’s assistance, it was insignificant.

“Rune Bomb! Fire!”

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

The Sword-shield Warriors at the back were already prepared. With an order, Rune Bomb instantly flew out and landed in the Scorpion Army. They instantly exploded, sending demonic shadows flying, and black blood and broken limbs flew everywhere.

Under the support of the two great halos of explosion and splattering, these Rune Bombs displayed a hundred times the effect, killing more than half of the remaining Scorpion Warriors in an instant.

“D*mn the Lord of Dawn! D*mn the Human race!”

The leader of the Scorpion race stood near the altar. His eyes were as cold as a snake’s, and there was a bit of disbelief in them. He had never expected that a battle that was almost evenly matched would end up in a one-sided crushing situation.

Furthermore, the Human race was crushing the Scorpion race. This was simply too crazy!

Those terrifying crossbows and arrows, the indestructible shield wall, the terrifying spear formation, and the power that burst out on the battlefield made the leader of the Scorpion race, who had been watching from the back, feel terrified.

He felt that this might be the Human Army’s trump card. After forming a formation, not only could it increase the soldiers’ combat strength and defense ability by ten to a hundred times, but it could also provide them with considerable recovery ability.

Although his Scorpion Army was powerful and even had the support of the God of Demon Altar, compared to the Human Army, it was like a motley crew facing the true elites. They could simply be massacred.

The shame, anger, and hatred in the Scorpion race’s leader’s heart condensed into a flame, constantly burning his heart.

“Let’s go!”

At this point, it was meaningless to stay here and fight, so he gave the order to retreat.

As soon as the order was given, the remaining Scorpion Warriors quickly approached the altar.

During this process, the Human Army’s arrow rain didn’t stop falling. Constantly Scorpion Warriors were falling in the rain of arrows.

After approaching the altar, the remaining Scorpion Warriors were already less than three thousand.

Under the altar, a dark hole appeared, and the Scorpion Warriors quickly entered.

Li Xiang, who had been watching the battle from the sky outside, looked at the God of Demon Altar with some fear and ordered Alice, “Tell the warriors not to pursue. There’s something strange about that altar!”

Hearing this, Alice immediately said, “Stop pursuing and wait for orders!”

The God of Demon Altar had always given Li Xiang a terrible sense of danger. He was afraid that if he accidentally touched the altar and caused an accident, he would really provoke the God of Demon, and then it would not be worth it.

This time, he had come here to save these hundreds of thousands of Human civilians. Since he had already achieved his goal and killed most of the Scorpion Warriors, he had already exceeded his mission. There was no need to create more trouble.

Although Li Xiang was very confident in his current strength, confidence did not mean arrogance.

He was merely a demigod who had stepped onto the path of God less than two months ago. He really didn’t have much confidence to challenge a true God.

He wasn’t afraid of the true Gods because they couldn’t descend in their true bodies. However, if he attracted the attention of the true Gods and their followers who knew the Kingdom of Dawn well, the consequences would be completely different.

He surmised that the Scorpion race was just a branch of the God of Demon in the Myriad World Continent. As long as the Scorpion race provided enough sacrifices, he would be willing to provide them with the necessary gifts and help.

But in reality, he was completely uninterested in the enemies of the Scorpion race.

However, if Li Xiang led an army to smash his altar, it would be a slap in the face of the true God, and it would be hard to say how the God of Demon would react at that time.

Although the Scorpion race hadn’t been completely annihilated, they had suffered great losses and wouldn’t cause trouble for the Kingdom of Dawn for a short period. In that case, there was no need to provoke a true God.

As long as he didn’t target the Kingdom of Dawn or the Human race, heLi Xiang wouldn’t cause trouble for him for the time being. It would be best to maintain peace.

What he needed the most now was time!

At this time, the Scorpion race’s leader, who was bringing up the rear, suddenly turned his head before stepping into the hole.

“Lord of Dawn, I’ve already figured out the ins and outs of your Human race in today’s battle. So what if you win one round? Our Scorpion race won’t be exterminated. In the future, we will meet again on the battlefield. At that time, you will lose without a doubt!”

The Scorpion race’s leader was filled with unwillingness.

This battle could be said to have been lost in an unclear way, but from the scene, there was no suspense in the loss. But even so, he still looked down on the Human race. It was just that the Human race was well-prepared and caught them off guard.

And they would definitely make a comeback. It didn’t matter if the Scorpion Army died or was destroyed. As long as the God of Demon Altar was there, they didn’t need to reproduce normally. They could just breed a huge number of Scorpion Warriors.

He believed that the battle would not end up like this the next time.

Although the leader of the Scorpion race didn’t see the Lord of Dawn appear, he believed that the Lord of Dawn, who was a demigod, must be paying attention to this place.

Sure enough, the next moment, the voice of the Lord of Dawn sounded.

“Today, you were able to keep your poor life because of this God of Demon Altar, but next time, you won’t get this kind of treatment. Not even the God of Demon Altar can stop the attack of our Human army! So, the rest of your life depends on when you see my army again!”

In terms of arrogance and confidence, Li Xiang was far better than these barbarians.

If it wasn’t for the fact that he didn’t want to provoke the God of Demon and wanted to buy more time for himself to develop, these remaining Scorpion Warriors wouldn’t have been able to escape.

“Hahaha…”

“Okay, fine. I’ll leave these humans to you. Humble humans can be found everywhere in the Myriad World Continent, so collecting them is a simple matter. Other than your Kingdom of Dawn, there are other places with the same delicious blood food.”
